Disturbing as Old couple who have lived for 70years separate for the first time

Couple, Herbert, 90 and his wife, Aubrey, 89 who have lived together for 70 years have been separated from each other for the first time in the festive season.Herbert was moved from the care home he lived with his wife because he developed dementia, according to The Telegraph.Workers of the care home called for the transfer to a more equipped care home in order to handle the growing health condition. In disagreement to the development, the couple's daughter, Dianne Philips, protested the transfer, describing it as "unethical" and "cruel." In a viral Facebook post, she wrote:When talking to my parents I listened to my mother weep and I could hear my father in the background. My mother said, 'Christmas is over for us now and this is the worst Christmas that we will ever have. Why could they not have waited until after the holidays?' Jennifer Eagan, owner of the care home known as Victoria Villa, nevertheless defended the transfer. She said: Once a resident is beyond our care, [the department of social development] reassesses that resident to determine what level they are. At that point I have to follow those rules and regulations set by the government. In fact, it’s against the law for me not to follow those rules.
